Barracuda Blog

One of the cool things about the Barracuda portfolio is the flexibility of deployment. You know that we offer physical and virtual machine deployments, but did you also know that we offer cloud, public cloud, and hybrid deployments? Let's take a look at what this flexibility means for you.

This is the traditional type of deployment and it's still very popular. Barracuda physical machines are purpose-built appliances that include the hardware, software, and cloud connectivity, that provide the greatest possible performance of the machine.

This type of deployment allows customers to control their hardware and keep their assets on-premise. Barracuda physical appliances range in size from desktop units to 2U rack-mounts, and offer a variety of resource configurations. Barracuda purpose-built appliances are easy to install and configure, and we have an award-winning support department standing by to assist if necessary.

Nearly all of our security and application delivery products are available as virtual machines. This allows our customers to save time, cut costs, simplify disaster recovery, and more. We support a variety of hypervisors, including VMware, Oracle VirtualBox, Microsoft Hyper-V, and Citrix. We also offer simple licensing and immediate downloads for all of our virtual machine appliances.
